[PATCH v3 0/3] Performance improvements for repacking non-promisor objects

Apparently I did not save in my text editor (and didn't notice because the code comment was still valid syntactically, so everything still compiled). Here's a version with the updated and correctly formatted code comment.

Jonathan Tan (3):
  index-pack --promisor: dedup before checking links
  index-pack --promisor: don't check blobs
  index-pack --promisor: also check commits' trees
